The scope base accessory for the popular receiver is offered in both black and silver. Our low scope base height is 5/16" (about 1/4") by 5 7/8" long and incorporates the Picatinny spacing system similar to the military spec. We chose the picatinny spacing so if customers have more rifles than scopes they can use the same scope ring spacing on more than one rifle. It works just like the Weaver style bases and rings you are accustomed to, only the slot spacing is identical for every mount made, no matter what gun it is attached to. Our low scope base extend over the front of the receiver for both function and fashion purposes. Function: the extension allows for greater eye relief. Fashion: the extended mount elongates the lines or contour of the receiver. The draw back is that our base doesn't work with rear sights or if you need the receiver to fit into an outer shell such as the SR-22®.

Scope Base and Scope Ring height recommendations:

Rings for weaver and picatinny will work well with our mounts. For nearly, all 22 rifles, the low scope base and low rings work best. We suggest low scope base and low rings with 40mm objective and smaller and low mount with meduim height rings with 50mm objective, as a general rule.

Package includes:

scope base

4 mounting screws

short arm hex wrench

Great Base

I started using the base that came stock with the Ruger 10/22; I found it to be poorly machined and the metal was soft. On top of that, it mounted my red dot too low with my stock's cheek weld. I swapped it out for the KIDD and am very impressed with this base. The height is perfect, machining and materials impeccable, and the forward mount pushes it over the top. Everybody should have one.

Fine Craftsmanship

Fast free shipping. The obviously high quality base was longer than the one that came with the stock 10 22 and could accommodate my scope. The allen screws and included wrench firmly secure the scope base that works with picatinny and weaver styles.

Perfect

The craftsmanship is superb, the fit is perfect, and it had the needed extra length to the eye relief correct. The scope ring height recommendations using this base were spot on and my glass of choice hugs the top of the rifle without touching the barrel.

Q:What is the recommended torque setting for the base screws thanks ?

Asked by: Joseph
- 5/27/2016

A: Officially, I would say just snug. Remember that the steel screw is going into an aluminum receiver, so caution is recommended. We use removable threadlocker during this installation. I would also note that too much threadlock and your firing pin could be bound up if it is allowed to drip down onto the bolt. Good shooting! KIDD

Q:Will this fit with an ATI stock? I notice that the rail goes past the receiver. The ATI stock is slight raised right past the end of the receiver.

Asked by: Kevin Mercer
- 5/8/2016

A: It looks like the ATI stock is raised slightly in front of the receiver. If so, our scope base wouldn't work with that stock. Good shooting! KIDD
